Dust off the VCR, folks!
Back in 1989, before the internet took over our lives and when VHS tapes were still king, Wild Chicago paid a visit to American Science & Surplus. And guess what? We just struck VHS gold—we found the footage! A true time capsule of surplus oddities, mad science, and whatever else we were up to back then.
Now, we’ve got to ask—did any of our Surpies happen to catch our moment of fame on Wild Chicago back in the day? Maybe you still remember what we had on the shelves or the glorious weirdness of it all. Either way, we’re working on getting this relic digitized so we can share it with you soon. Stay tuned!
